let the two parallel sides are x and y
then perimeter=10+10+x+y
52=20+x+y
52-20=x+y
32=x+y
the area of trapezium=1/2 ×(sum of parallel side)×height
we have the sum of parallel side=32
then
area,
1/2×32×8
=128cm^2
then perimeter=10+10+x+y
52=20+x+y
52-20=x+y
32=x+y
the area of trapezium=1/2 ×(sum of parallel side)×height
we have the sum of parallel side=32
then
area,
1/2×32×8
=128cm^2
